Yep, the bootloader and a FreeDOS kernel with the boot message removed.
Problem solved. :)

I may be wrong on this,but couldn't we just strip down the code used
for FreeDOS?Removing un-needed modules,drivers,and removing any
COUT/PRINTF statements to the point where it's just the kernel itself
should do it.

I think that can be done right? If we are finished with 1.2, then
we (or some of us) can make it. Unless, nobody wants to do such
thing. So, yeah I am volunteering. but it still needs an under
layer right (for running programs)?

By minimal, I mean that the boot sector program, and the kernel
(kernel.sys), don't do any displaying of text. All they need
to do is
set up the DOS interrupt vectors (so that they behave
correctly just as
with MS-DOS), and then load and execute the first file,
command.com <http://command.com>. No
displaying text at all. The screen should remain blank until
something
in command.com <http://command.com> causes text or graphics to
display. Such an absolute
minimal version of FreeDOS would be useful for me, because it
would
allow me to write my own program in assembly language, call it
command.com <http://command.com>, and then copy that file to
the disk, and use it to boot
another computer directly into the software I've written. This
minimal
version of FreeDOS would be just a boot-loader for my own OS-level
software, a launch-point for my application (my application
existing in
place of an OS, rather than being run from an OS), that would
then run
upon booting.
